Llama badges on DA. THEY DON'T DO ANYTHING STOP GIVEING THEM TO ME I COULD CARE LESS ABOUT THEM, IF YOU LIKE MY STUFF BLOODY SAY IT INSTEAD OF GIVEING ME A STUPID BADGE THAT DOES NOTHING.

[Makoes]

^ This a hundred times YES!

[Nubhorns]

I'm going to give you all llama badges now. ;P

A friend of mine is upset because my boyfriend gets more art from me than she does. I don't want to say 'duh', but I'm kind of in the stage where my world revolves around that boy and no one else. I don't mean to make anyone feel neglected. :/

[Azunara]

I love llamas! But only because I want a cool lookin' one. And besides, what I think about my art is low enough that hell, anything goes. Give me a sign that you know I exist and think what I do is neat and I'll be pleased. xD

And ergh, yeah. I can see how that can be annoying. Draw a picture of her...then go back to other pictures!

[Miyon]

I hate my fucking teacher. I am mad enough that I can't even begin to explain how stupidly retarded, ugly and annoying she is. If she got run over by a car and died, I wouldn't cry, I'd be happy. You can't ask her for help, only thing she does is interrupt and then rabble about something completely different than what I asked. She even got mad when I once told her to let me finish talking before answering me. She thought I was being rude.

Assumption is the mother of all fuck-ups.

I want to play.. But I can't even stay on for 2 minutes if I am lucky enough to be able to log on. And when I first get online, I have over 9000 latency and lags like shit.. Yesterday on the other hand was just fine, after I disabled the addons. A dc here and there, but nothing too serious.

[Makoes]

IT'S OVER NINE THOUSAND!!!!!!!!!
(oh like nobody saw THAT coming!)

the very random DC's are getting on my nerves! Just getting to the last boss in runs then BAM! mass dc's and have to do the whole dungeon all over again! Sure its just regs atm, and I am tanking, but damn its still annoying!

Havent even gotten to really see the revamped Troll 5-mans yet. Was in a fail group once on my hunter, FD and mass resurection was out friend...and that was mostly on trash...

[Miyon]

Predictable people Actually, the latency was stable around 9200 so.. Over 9000. xD

I just got a group that was on Daakara, one wipe, one new tank. Let's see how it goes.

BAD WORDS HERE


Now that that's out of the way here's my rant.

My dad. Now, in the past I've had friends tell me "Dude you have issues with your dad". Etc etc we're very different in the ways we communicate. This is a story that played out about 10 minutes ago. Enjoy.

*Driving home down the highway*

*Dad stops paying attention to the road*
*We start to swerve into oncoming traffic*
Me: WHAT ARE YOU DOING GET THE FUCK ON OUR SIDE OF THE ROAD.
*Pulls back into our lane*
Dad looks over at me and says "Fuck you."
I look over at him and reply "No, fuck you."
Dad: IF IT WERENT FOR THIS GUY DRIVING RIGHT ON MY ASS.
Me: So the way you're going to show him is by fucking driving us straight into a Semi hauling diesel?
Dad laughs.

Seriously I'm so pissed off right now.

My game time ran out. When I had 2 bosses left in ZG, with a great group. And I don't have the money to resubscribe. Argh!

[Cialbi]

National news coverage in the US. Of a birth certificate. So many people are at fault for this; Donald Trump for continuing to raise the issue as if it were actually importan, the newscasters themselves for covering it instead of tornadoes decimating huge swaths of the nation, and the White House for releasing another copy of the frickin' thing and thus thrusting it further into the spotlight. I'm not even blaming the paranoid 'birthers' - arguing with nutjobs is a waste of my time.

Oh, and once the news coverage moves on, guess what is being covered now? Royalty that we haven't owed allegiance to for over two centuries, thanks to a bloody war that we fought for our independence. Why? They're having an extravagant wedding.

[Saturo]

Royalty needs to be gone. Sweden still has it's royal family, even though we're a democracy. I hate looking it up on various sites and seeing Goverment: Monarchy

But what about a birth certificate? Whose? :D

[Miyon]

Isn't it about Obama not being born in USA or something like that? I think I may have seen something somewhere, but didn't care enough to look it up.

[Anyia]

Hey, I like the royal family! At least it gives us a chance of having someone standing up and telling things the way they should be, rather than relying on often-morally-bankrupt politicians to find a spine somewhere... I'm remembering the aftermath of the pre-Japan tsunami disaster where the bureaucracy fell over itself and wouldn't make any decisions to get the help action going, and the only official to stand up and shame them into action was HM the King (despite him being expressly forbidden to meddle in political matters). In my view Sweden has done exceptionally well in managing to both hold to traditions while moving with the times.

Democracy is overrated as a perfect solution. I'd prefer a competent benevolent dictator...

In a democracy you end up with masses of ignorant, short-sighted, misinformed (don't get me started on media's responsibilities in this area), or generally careless people deciding the well-being of everyone. In a representational democracy the issue is further exacerbated by the limited choices in whom to vote for, resulting in a heavily skewed power structure ripe for exploitation by the wealthy and influential directly to the detriment of the people the elected representatives supposedly should be looking out for.

Politics. The antithesis of a win-win situation. /rant

[Moore]

So you're saying we should create the First Galactic Empire.

I'll agree to this.




Also rant at blizzard releasing yet another "survey" which keeps me and a few thousand other people from being able to play, and they really don't care about this issue.

Not saying they haven't done good occasionally, just that I want to get rid of them. Monarchy is hereditary, regardless of how little power they have. Personally, I find it unfair that they get to be mocked in TV all the time and I don't.

And when did I say I wanted democracy? Dictatorship=Much more efficient.

Heh, you couldn't entice me into royalty with a princess and all the kingdom! That's a burden I'd really not want!

Have you considered applying to "reality" tv shows? I hear they're good at mocking people and driving their psyches through the floor... <insert "reality" tv rant here>

And when did I say I wanted democracy? Dictatorship=Much more efficient.

Ah, apologies for drawing the wrong conclusion. Perhaps the most efficient approach then would be to just ditch the parliament and reinstate the King proper?

[Saturo]

Nope, since I don't like the king. Not to worry though, my revolutionary group will be ready soon enough.

And no, not reality shows, since I hate them. I also didn't say that I wanted to be royalty, just that I consider it stupid that they're so unimportant and still get mocked. Meh.

But what about a birth certificate? Whose?

Apologies; should'nt have assumed that anyone outside the US would know a lick about this.

Anyways, the US Constitution stipulates that all presidents of this country must be natural-born citizens; that is, a citizen of this country by birth. President Obama was born in the state of Hawaii. Problem is, the Republicans (opposition party to the current president) started spreading rumors about him not being born in the US, in an effort to de-legitimize his presidency in the eyes of gullible citizens. Those that believe this conspiracy theory are known as 'birthers'. Early on, Obama released a copy of his birth certificate, a document that is recognized by the state of Hawaii and thus should be considered legitimate. Not to be dissuaded, birthers started demanding that he release the 'long form' of his birth certificate, which is ridiculous; back when we could cross the US-Canada border with just a birth certificate, there was no requirement for the 'long form' to be presented. Well, recently Donald Trump has started campaigning for the Republican nomination for President, and has been time and again raising this as if it were a real issue. Apparently fed up with this load of BS getting in the way of his presidency, President Obama released a certified copy of the 'long form' of his birth certificate just a few days ago. The news was yacking away about this for the rest of the day. At least Obama has moved on, and is now spending his time focused on the aftermath of a huge storm that swept seven states with tornadoes, some up to a mile wide; the death toll is already well over 100.

EDIT: No, I'm not being unfair by not giving a balanced version of both sides of the debate; there is now more proof available that Obama was born in the US than there is that I was born in the US, and if you want to claim that I was not born in the state of Washington, then I honestly won't give you the time of day.
(Do note that I was not addressing anyone in particular)
